- A conversation between Dr. Beth Harris and Dr. Steven Zucker in front of Portrait Head of Queen Tiye with a Crown of Two Feathers, c. 1355 B.C.E., Amarna Period, Dynasty 18, New Kingdom, Egypt, yew wood, lapis lazuli, silver, gold, faience, 22.5 cm high (Egyptian Museum and Papyrus Collection at the Neues Museum, Berlin). Created by Beth Harris and Steven Zucker.
Tiye made contributions to society that are still actively echoing through time still affecting our realities today. Very special person
Oh wow really? I never knew this, thank you❤️
what a beautiful black woman
Afrocentric delusions. Just look at the hair on the mummy none of that is " black" at all. Her dna came back as Eurasian maternally and paternally.
wow...I look just like her....that explains alot
I was just thinking that I look like her!!😍
Angel Lee My Mother looks like her ☺️
And all you ladies are beautiful black goddesses.
I heard that she's king tuts grandmother
+CHRISTOPHER CHOICE Yes she is.
+CHRISTOPHER CHOICE she is
And Nefertiti's mother-in-law.
Akhenaten was King Tuts Father. Nefertiti wasn't his mother though. She was probably one of his other wives and concubines. But Queen Tiye is definitely his grandmother.
Black Beautiful Queen!!!
Oxidized wood.
Thats why she looks more brownish.
@camaxtle Yes the oxidized wood made her skin brown and her hair black and eyes white 😂
only she knows her true story.
Interesting summation. However, the statement regarding removal of the headress' royal insignia upon the death of her husband Amenhotep III as a sign of her "demotion," is not substantiated by iconographic evidence. As widows, Queens retained their royal status with the additional title of king's mother, if their son became ruler. Queen Tiye was elevated to the status of a goddess by her husband, with a temple devoted to her worship in Nubia. There, she was worshiped as a manifestation of the Goddess Hathor, a goddess symbolized by a crown with a sun disk between two horns and feathers.
Where “the Aten” would have been depicted as just the (sun) disk, without the other stuff, like a halo behind Queen Tiye head. 🌞 “The Aten”. I understand that Queen Mother was very supportive of her son’s unconventional views. Where do you think he learned them? 😉
Great highlight of Ancient Egypt's historicals. Very awesome insight.
She was completely APPROACHABLE.....
Beutfull black queen 👸
With long flowing red hair.
The headdress she is wearing was also worn by her daughter Sitamun as well as Ankhesenamun. It’s typically referred to as a Nubian wig.
It's probably a khat headdress.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khat_(apparel)
@@lashid4u371 the khat is underneath it
@@lashid4u371 Yes, the visible headdress is in the Nubian style with additional motifs, like the double feathers, signifying her semi-divine and royal status. The original headdress is silver of the khat type, but as you noted, it was later covered by new regalia that emulates a type of crown only worn by great royal wives of the 18th and 19th Dynasties. Her titles included, among others, Great Royal Wife, Lady of The Two Lands, Mistress of Upper and Lower Egypt, and later, King's Mother. She was the grandmother of King Tutankhamun.
Except that she wasn't Nubian but Egyptian and that is her hair depicted. Is there any evidence that Egyptians referred to it as a Nubian wig?
@ LISTEN UP: YOU BETTER GO AND DO SOME MORE RESEARCH THE ANCIENT PEOPLE OF KEMET ARE NOT ARABS, THE GREEKS CALLED KEMET EGYTOS TODAY YOU HAVE THE WORD EGYPT, THE ANCIENT PEOPLE OF KEMET NEVER CALLED THEMSELVES EGYPTIANS, THERE NEVER WAS EGYPTIAN TRIBES IN AFRICA BEFORE OR DURING THE DYNASTIC PERIODS BEFORE INVASION, FURTHERMORE THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS THE MIDDLE EAST, ALSO GIVEN ITS NAME BY THE BRITISH CAUCASIANS, ITS ALL AFRICAN PERIOD...
EGYPT IS IN AFRICA she is an AFRICAN woman. King Tut was a African. Arab nations did not conquer north Africa until 640 A.D.
"By 2010, DNA analysis, sponsored by the Secretary General of the Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities Zahi Hawass, was able to formally identify the Elder Lady as Queen Tiye.[26] She was found to be about 40-50 years old at the time of her death, and 145 cm (4 ft 9 in) tall.[27] DNA results published in 2020 revealed that Tiye had the mtDNA haplogroup K (as did her mother, Thuya). Tiye's father Yuya was found to have the Y-DNA haplogroup G2a and mtDNA haplogroup K.[28][29]" "Haplogroup K appears in Central Europe, Southern Europe, Northern Europe, North Africa, the Horn of Africa, South Asia and West Asia and in populations with such an ancestry. Overall the mtDNA haplogroup K is found in about 6% of the population of Europe and the Near East, but it is more common in certain populations." G2a, is a subclade of G-M201, which "is most commonly found among various ethnic groups of the Caucasus, but is also widely distributed at low frequencies among ethnic groups throughout Europe, South Asia, Central Asia, and North Africa." - Wikipedia
Don’t forget the persians, assyrians, greeks, and romans, and lastly arabs, also many tribes left ancient egypt during those invasions only ones left are the indigenous nubians, it makes me angry how those descendants of greeks and arabs claim ancient egypt when the ancient greeks described Egyptians of that time as black with wooly hair.
Africa was even a thing back then fool. Literally Egypt want even apart of Africa until the late 1900s 🤡
Before you get all riled up, no one said she wasn't African.
The DNA tests performed on her and her parents to determine if she was indeed Queen Tiye DO suggest her family came from someplace other than Nubia, however.

Carved from a piece of yew wood. Beautiful craftsmanship. Must of took the artist days just to get her headdress right.
Must have taken, not "must of took", the artist.......
She even had an African Afro...i love the fact that she was African, an there are many women to this day here in africa that have the same afro's yet these clowns want us to believe its a HairDress, my mom, has the same hairstyle to this day here in Africa
letthepharaohbewithyou In the video they told it was a hairdress.
Yes very black
They all were black hun!!! 💯 ❤️
As was the vast majority of the inhabitants of Ancient Khemet.
🤦🏻♂️ you might want to look up her mummy. She didn’t have an Afro. That’s a head dress.
It was immediately interesting to hear how her status changed relative to the men in her life.. It seems like what you'd expect of a female historical figure, but this is contemporary for some.
Definitely co-signing how unapproachable see seems. She doesn't seem mean, per se, but you can tell she was high-status and not to be trifled with, lol. I see focus, wisdom, determination, and no-nonsense.
The headdress is unbelievable. I can only imagine what it would've looked like on her head as she wore that expression. It's beautiful (and so was she).
I admire her son’s love for her, we need that kind of honor for our parents today
McNasty :: Parents must earn the honor of their children. Not all parents are worthy AND not all people should have children.
@@cliffgaitherThat’s true but it’s also a two way street. There are very worthy parents out there who get the short end of the stick when it comes to their children, and many great kids who have been unfortunate enough to be born to abusive parents. Can’t really argue one side over the other when both unworthy parents AND children exists.
@@Mr.Obongo :: That's absolutely true ! Yes ! You're right. I spoke from personal experience w / my parents.
@@cliffgaither That is not truth according to our Maker! God COMMANDS that children should Honor their parents. Thats from God & has NO EXCEPTIONS. God will judge those who are awful parents & children but the Command comes with no stipulations. You can still follow God’s commandment even if they are not worthy & God will honor the childs faithfulness. That also does not mean a child shld stay with an abusive parent but we must Honor then still. God will take care of the rest. They dont “have” to earn it. We as children ate commanded to still Honor them, period!
@d.b.4201 :: It is very difficult to honor parents who are not worthy, especially the ones who are going up-side your head with a two-by-four.
From the beginning of time.
Has there been x raysccansof what the head dress underneath looked like?
wow, never seen anything like that, stunning ... important !!
Another excellent video, great work. Definitely one of my favourite channels on UA-cam.
What a understatement
Terrific analysis.
Big talent sculpture. Not perfect like Greek style but so expressive !
This bust predate the'perfect' Greek busts and arts by at least 1000years
@@PoetOpe : There is nothing "PERFECT" by far about Ancient Grecian Artifacts....not by a long shot....!!! POINT 📌📍 BLANK 🎯 BULLSEYE PERIOD 🔴🤔.
Greeks cam much later learning from and building on what Egyptians had done. They weren't perfect either.
@@listenup2882 In the field of art, perfection is not necessarily a compliment. Van Gogh's paintings are far from representing reality to perfection. It is precisely this imperfection that makes his paintings so expressive.
